If not, download it. Or at the very least, do a google check for the lyrics. Several versions/variant recordings, are all satirically great. But in one, I distinctly remember him in a Dylan-esque voice, all in good fun, you can here him laughing at the end. Great "funny" little shot/song directed at good ol' Bob.

I know the song you are talking about. Lennon had a great barbed wit.
The one part of Bob Zimmerman's (er, Dylan's) career I didn't really get was during his "Born-Again-Bob" period, as we referred to it. Nonethless, I went to a Dylan concert in Tokyo during that phase and Dylan came out with a large band and proceeded to play different arrangements of his songs, with a slightly calypso feel to them. That was really bizarre.
Oh well...
BTW, one of my favorite John Lennon song's is the Dylanesque sounding "Working Class Hero".
